Carlo Ancelotti provides injury blow on James Rodriguez ahead of West Ham

Everton are set to face West Ham United on Sunday as the Premier League action resumes. The Toffees suffered a 1-2 loss at Aston Villa last week, but will be looking to taking essential points vs the Hammers to secure a spot for a European football next season. Ahead of the match head coach Carlo Ancelotti has talked to the press and provided injury update on James Rodriguez. The Colombian missed the game against the Villa and Ancelotti has revealed that James will be out this time as well due to injury. "It is a little problem," said the Toffees boss. "He didn't train this week, he trained alone following a proper rehab and the plan is to start training at the beginning of next week." However, there are good news for the Merseyside club as Abdoulaye Doucoure will be available on Sunday.
